This is a really insightful analysis of why concern about Trump is justified. Thanks Andrew!

My latest: “Calm down,” they said. “Maybe he’s changed. Maybe the guardrails will hold.” Don’t you believe it. He hasn’t, and they won’t. https://t.co/LSJ5S55qKQ

Just in: Detailed #climate order from the Rajasthan High Court. A single judge bench of Justice Anoop Dhand passed a slew of directions suo motu, to State as well as Centre re urgently addressing heat + cold waves. Everything you need to know, in this thread.

#ClimateBreakdown

Scientists say Russia is warming at least 2.5 times faster than the rest of the world, melting the long-frozen tundra that covers about 65% of the country's landmass and releasing greenhouse gases stored in the thawed soil.

Stunning drone footage has revealed details of the Batagaika crater, a one kilometre long gash in Russia's Far East that forms the world's biggest permafrost crater.

Thawing permafrost has already threatened cities and towns across northern and northeastern Russia, buckling roadways, splitting apart houses, and disrupting pipelines. Vast wildfires, which have become more intense in recent seasons, exacerbate the problem.

I don’t think some people over 40 understand how fed up millennials & gen z truly are. There is no future for us. We have been used as political bargaining chips our entire lives while getting nothing in return. There is historical precedent to where this will eventually lead.

@TimDraimin @philea_eu It is great to see the emergence of another element in the ecosystem to support transformational change

@gmbutts I wonder how long until these robots replace humans in factories, stores, battlegorunds ... ? Are we ready? Is our social policy framework ready?

@BenjaminRamm Whether it is two decades or five, this level of climate change are increasingly plausible. Are we preparing for this level of disruption and mass migration?

@JacobDEllis @futuregencymru Governments can learn from this experience. It is one way to embed long range thinking into policy development and decision-making

Today I asked ChatGPT about the topic I wrote my PhD about. It produced reasonably sounding explanations and reasonably looking citations. So far so good – until I fact-checked the citations. And things got spooky when I asked about a physical phenomenon that doesn’t exist.

This is a very clear picture of who needs to do more work to reduce carbon emissions.
